Fighting The War Against Ignorance

| November 12, 2014
(We are in history class, having just finished learning about the lead-up to the civil war.)
Teacher: “…and then tomorrow we will begin the war.”
(He realizes how that sentence sounds, and, in typical fashion, runs with it.)
Teacher: “Yeah! War starts tomorrow. Bring your musket! [Student #1], you have your musket? [Student #2]! Do you have a musket?”
Student #2: “Uh…”
Teacher: “Do you have some type of weapon?”
Student #2: *who is on the fencing team* “I have a sword…”
Teacher: “A sword is good!”
Me: “I can steal my sister’s lacrosse stick…”
Teacher: “Sounds good! Anything that’ll inflict pain on the enemy!”
